Electrical requirements

 The range can be connected directly

to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker

box) through flexible armored conduit.

This range can be direct wired to a four-

wire or three-wire aluminum wiring

system. See “Direct wire method: Copper

or Aluminum wire” section.

Allow two to three feet of slack in the line

so that it can be moved if servicing is

ever necessary.

A U.L.-listed conduit connector must be

provided at each end of the power supply

cable (at the range and at the junction

box).

Wire sizes and connections must conform

with the rating of the range (40 amps).

 The wiring diagram is located on the

back of the range or on the inside of the

storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.

Recommended ground method

It is the personal responsibility and

obligation of the customer to contact a

qualified electrician to assure that the

electrical installation is adequate and is in

conformance with the National Electrical

Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*

and all local codes and ordinances.

Power supply cord is not supplied, but is

available through your local electrical

supply house.

If codes permit and a separate ground

wire is used, it is recommended that a

qualified electrician determine that the

ground path and wire gauge are in

accordance with local codes.

This range must be connected to a

grounded metal, permanent wiring

system.

Check with a qualified electrician if you

are not sure range is properly grounded.

Do not ground to a gas pipe.

Do not have a fuse in the neutral or

ground circuit.

Range must be connected to the proper

electrical voltage and frequency as

specified on the model/serial rating plate.

(The model/serial rating plate is located

on the oven frame behind the storage

drawer panel.)

 A four-wire or three-wire, single-

phase, 120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only,

electrical supply (or three-wire or four-

wire 120/208-volt if specified on the

model/serial rating plate) is required on a

separate, 40 amp circuit, fused on both

sides of the line.

 A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is

recommended.

Copies of the standards listed may be obtained

from:

*National Fire Protection Association

If connecting to a four-wire

system:

This range is manufactured with the

ground connected to the cabinet. The

ground must be revised so the green

grounding wire of the four-wire power

supply cord is connected to the cabinet.

See “Four-wire electrical connection”

section.

When a four-wire receptacle of NEMA

Type 14-50R is used (see Figure 1, below),

a matching U.L.-listed, four-wire, 250-volt,

40 amp, range power supply cord (pigtail)

must be used. This cord contains four

copper conductors with either ring

terminals or spade terminals with

upturned ends to connect the power

supply at the appliance end, terminating

in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the

supply end. The fourth (grounding)

conductor must be identified by a green

or green/yellow cover and the neutral

conductor by a white cover. Cord should

be Type SRD or SRDT with a U.L.-listed

strain relief and be at least four feet long.

The minimum conductor sizes for the

copper four-wire power cord are:

40 amp circuit

2 No.-8 conductors
